I have heard people claim their 700 is faster than their 750. Could that be due to the smaller bore size? My 700 is still missing it's carb, until the piece from the UK comes in, so I cannot test this theory.

&#x1f642; haha I've seen 10k on purpose, maybe 12 accidentally. Pretty sweet v-twin. Locals hear a sportbike wailing through town and all they see is an old geezer on a cruiser..

I like being earshaved with stock pipes, it's only loud when I make it loud.

I found no usable power > 8500. What are you doing at 10k?!?

Once I get my bike running again (and stumble upon $250 or so), I'm going to put on a programmable ignition.
I suspect the power fall off after 8k is due to no ignition advance after 3.5k.
Looking online at various engines (I know, all engines are different), many show increasing advance all the way up to redline.
It might just be the RPM that it runs out of steam.
